Be sure to read Adam’s post for the full story of the press generated so far. Judging by the traffic to FIRE’s website yesterday and the stream of comments generated, Binghamton has hardly seen the last of what promises to be an unfriendly and unremitting treatment by the press.

Elsewhere, FIRE’s efforts at a pair of small Texas colleges continue to generate buzz throughout the web and the blogosphere. As Adam noted on Wednesday, Garry Reed, writing at Examiner.com, ridiculed the administration of Lone Star College–Tomball for its attempt to silence discussion of firearms on campus and its unconstitutional efforts to punish the campus chapter of the Young Conservatives of Texas for a satirical "gun safety tips" flyer.

And FIRE’s victory at Temple College, which garnered national attention last week, has generated quite a grassroots following since FIRE got involved a week ago. The Thomas Jefferson Center for the Protection of Free Expression carried word of the incident, as did an interestingcoalitionofotherblogs bound equally by their passions for protecting free expression and for philosopher Friedrich Nietzsche. To those Torch readers who need a reminder, it was Nietzsche’s well-known quote "Gott ist tot" ("God is dead") that officials ordered removed from English instructor Kerry Laird’s office door before FIRE successfully intervened on his behalf. One Temple administrator, as we mentioned, has already stepped down from her position in the wake of the incident.
